I believe I am the only one who has actually done this so far. (Anyone know of other implementations that are largely in line with Bryan’s (bnewbold) vision?
Part of my gripe is that what I see starting to form in the data diaries is using an old permission paradigm when a newer, more efficient, what users understand from the major apps we use today… system (zanzibar/rebac vs acl/rbac) that can also represent the older systems better. This older style will not enable me to build the applications I want, or force me to do off protocol stuff, which I’m not keen to do when we could have it on protocol, as I have in my POC that modifies the official PDS.
I don’t think anyone around ATProto has designed or built a permission system before. This is why I looked to the experts rather than coming up with something on my own.
